The story of Italo disco is not as easy to pin down as its signature sound, with its synths and sequencers, its widely hailed Messrs. Moroder and Flagio, and its simple, unadulterated exuberance. For many, the phrase Italo screams 80s. Yet, before becoming the globally exported phenomenon many remember it as today, the roots lie in Italian disco. A sensuous, sentimental, lavish thing that dominated the mainstream pop culture of Italy, occupying prime time slots on RAI 1, the national broadcaster.
